Ok, so I put on the lift, and cranked the torsion bars on my Amigo and noticed the front tires are pointing outward. Assuming that it needs aligned. What if any way it there to get my tires straight?

Camber will be out when you first do a lift. Toe can also be affected. All can be corrected. A good shop can align the toe or camber. Here is an explanation Alignment Any shop can align the toe, but some shops will tell you that the camber cannot be aligned because you "took it out of specs" with your lift. This is B.S. A good shop CAN align the camber on a '99 Amigo without any problem. One Firestone told me they could not do it. A new Firestone said, "No Problem" and aligned it perfectly - toe, camber and caster. I had even tire wear for the life of the tires. Pete

if you can do allignments, then do it yourself. if not - then take it to a shop. the fact that you are asking tells me you may be better off at a shop... no biggy; its worth it..

I go to the local isuzu dealer. They didn't have a problem with my moms lifted vx, and my brothers lifted amigo.
I think it was like $70.

You're fortunate to even have a local Isuzu dealer. Most of us don't have that option anymore. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
